We are so lucky to have Laila care for our 3-month-old baby girl! She is very warm and kind. She was able to quickly soothe my baby and help her fall asleep for a nap. Our baby felt so safe and comfortable sleeping in her arms. It's obvious that Laila is highly experienced with infants. She is truly an amazing nanny, and I highly recommend her!

Cynthia was our nanny for 1.5 years. She developed an instant bond with our baby. She was attentive, organized playdates, and became a great friend to our whole family. We trusted her completely, and we never hesitated leaving our baby with Cynthia. We miss her so much and wish we still lived nearby. Any family is lucky to have Cynthia as their nanny.

Personally I am a very friendly person and a college student.  Currently enrolling to become a nurse I like to take care of people and mostly kids being a older sister I have the patience and understand single moms and married couples with needing help for their loved ones.  I will do the work of babysitting just because its something I like to do.  I understand the economy is down and most families will not be able to pay high but I will be negotiable and understand.  I would like to help for weekend babsitting and help families out.

Lizzy was very responsive to us and very kind to our boy. She made sure there was everything to know about our 22 month old and she delivered on her promise of taking care of him. Sadly this was a one time thing since we are not from NJ. If otherwise I would definitely hire her as our regular nanny. Hopefully next time we visit NJ she’ll be around.

Josephine M., Nanny in Oakland, NJ 07436 with 17 years of paid experience

Hi Families! My name is Jo, and I have over 15 years of experience in childcare for all ages. My past experiences have been with wonderful families who have welcomed me as an addition to their family. I took excellent care of the children and completed all the duties the position required on time. I consider myself a very reliable, trustworthy, honest, patient, and punctual person who puts a hundred percent into whatever the job requirements are. My strong references from my previous employers will prove that I would be a great fit for your family. I have a very energetic personality and multitasking is not an issue for me. I enjoy keeping your child happy at all times as that is an important factor to me as well as safety and wellbeing which I prioritize. Being an addition to your family is not just a job for me, it is my passion in childcare.

I’ve worked as a babysitter for several families, caring for children of various ages and needs. I also gained hands on experience at a daycare where I helped with daily routines, playtime, and early learning activities. Through these experiences, I’ve developed strong skills in creating a safe, engaging, and nurturing environment for kids.

Samantha F., Nanny in Oakland, NJ 07436 with 7 years of paid experience

I have been working with children since I was 16 years old from ages 4 months- 12 years old. I grew up as one of the oldest to many cousins and loved going to work with my mother who was a teacher, which is where my passion started. I started babysitting at 16 and have been working in childcare programs since 2019. I started at a daycare in 2019 working with children from age 5 months to 13 years old. I worked at a special needs pre-K for two years and I am now working as a prek teacher’s assistant in an elementary school. I have also part-time worked with a 19-year-old with Rhett syndrome. I enjoy providing engaging activities where children can also learn through play! I have my CPR and first aid certificate. I’m looking for a full-time position and would be available to start mid June. I am looking forward to speaking to you!!
